Isn't the whole point to be able to run wider wheels than the stock fenders? So not cutting would just limit you.

Are you waiting for the new wheels to do it..or?

I just got word my wheels will be shipped in 1-2 weeks from today.. Whole build has been revolving around wheel delivery, just like you mentioned.

But... since I wasn't going slammed, I decided to speed it up a bit..

I'll probably be done in about 2 weeks now. .. Haven't driven it in 3 (longest ever, haha)

Everytime I hear a Subie driveby, I miss my car even more

Flood of pictures coming up.

Can't wait to see this car when everything is dialed in the way you want, I am digging the style.

I was really concerned for you judgement on whats aesthetically pleasing at first but this might actually be really nice. I love that the defanging of the bumber, good job. Hope your wheels fill out wells nicely.

Thanks!

Wheels: Forgestar F14, super deep concave all around
Tires: Hankook Ventus V12 EVO K120
FR: 18x9.5 +5, 245/40
RR: 18x11 -6, 285/35

Suspension is just an Eibach Pro-Kit, so 1" drop.

Coilovers in the future. Very happy with the 'stance' so far, but stock (soft) shocks w/stiff springs is going to make the tires wear faster than I want.
